Weekend Update: Very hot again, but change is coming

After temperatures hit 100 degrees for the first time in a year on Friday, expect that to probably happen again today for most of the Houston area.

Unlike yesterday, however, there could be a stronger sea breeze this afternoon, providing a slight chance of rain this afternoon and evening along the coast and to the southwest of Houston, forecasters with the National Weather Service say.

As the high moves off a slight chance of rain will remain on Sunday before drier air works its way into the area.

This inflow of drier and slightly cooler air will set the stage for considerably more reasonable temperatures during the first half of next week, with highs in the low-90s.

After a mostly dry second half of June, the atmospheric pattern also appears such that rain showers will become more probable during the Thursday through Saturday period.

I love this hot weather. Its great to go to work driving pilings and then come home and drink some cold beer and cook some steaks! Sweating feels good and it gets a lot of impurities out of the system.
